Hobbies
I have a very outgoing and positive attitude. Teaching is truly my passion! I love to do outdoor activities including swimming, kayaking, hiking, and running. I read many different kinds of books, but mainly science related, and I listen to all kinds of music except rap. I am a devout Catholic/Christian, and I take my job as an educator extremely seriously, but make the subject of science a fun and exciting one.
